The story is told of two boys who were always fighting. Neither one ever won any of the fights except on one occasion when one boy threw a lucky punch and knocked the other boy to the ground. The boy lay on the ground with a stunned look on his face as though he couldn’t believe what had just happened. He was so amazed that he jumped up and ran away. As he left, the other boy could hear him saying, ‘I’m going to tell my dad!’
Well he told his dad and his dad talked with the other boy’s dad and he in turn talked to his son. By the time all of this had taken place, both boys were the best of friends again, and they never fought again. The talk with dad settled the issues that brought about the fight in the first place.
When you think about it, we sometimes lose the fight when it comes to our spiritual battles; we get ‘knocked to the ground.’ That’s when we know that it’s time to have a talk with Dad. An old chorus refrain comes to mind, ‘Just a little talk with Jesus makes it right.’ When you talk to your heavenly Father and listen to His answer, you will find that He will resolve the issues and turn your defeat to victory. So, when you find yourself in a spiritual battle, Just go tell Dad!
